2 adults, 1 child injured in plane crash on San Jose expressway, fire department says

SAN JOSE, Calif. (KGO) -- San Jose Fire Department responded to the scene of a plane crash that injured three people in the area of Capitol Expressway and Excalibur Drive Saturday afternoon.

The crash was reported just after 3 p.m. when a small propeller plane crashed on the roadway near Reid Hillview Airport.

Two adults and one child were onboard the plane and were transferred to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, according to the fire department.

Fire officials say no one on the ground was hurt, and no vehicles were involved in the crash.

However, the crash caused a minor fuel spill that SJFD said was absorbed.
